This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poets and Poetry of England, in the Nineteenth Century The merits of byron and wordsworth have been amply discussed by'recent critics on both sides Of the Atlantic, and the claims of shelley begin to attract a share of the attention they deserve. If the author of Childe Harold excelled all others in the poetry of intense emotion, and the bard of Rydal in that of reflective sentiment, shelley has contributed no less to what is purely imaginative in the divine art. The graphic power of crabbe in dealing with actual and homely materials, the picturesque and romantic beauty of scott, the wildness, sublimity and feeling of coleridge, the gorgeous description and fine reflection of southey, the voluptuous imagery and happy wit of moore, the elegance and rhetorical energy Of campbell, have each in their degree influenced the popular taste; while the classical imagery of keats, the brilliance and tenderness of proctor, the cheerfulness and humanity of hunt, and the philosophic repose of milnes, interest the warm sympathies of different readers. A taste for poetry is visibly increasing among us, especially for that poetry which celebrates the triumphs of humanity, the sacred claims of freedom, the holy associations of love, and all the scenes and sentiments which redeem life and make hallowed ground of the earth. There is much in the following pages fitted to promote and refine such a taste, and that they may essentially contribute to so desirable a result is the earnest hope of the editor.

Download or read book Book of the Poets written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Book of the Poets: The Modern Poets of the Nineteenth Century As might have been expected from such a mechanical state of poetry, a set of conventional phrases was formed by which the process of verse-making was rendered still more easy and unin tellectual. Thus, if the poet wished to write a pastoral, the snowy fleeces, the verdant lawns, and purling streams, were all at hand, and might be arranged without an effort. Like the canvas scenes of a panorama, they might be made to revolve before the on-lookers by the turning of a winch. If he commenced a production of some length, it was necessary, in the first place, to invoke his Muse, without which the poem would have looked like a sermon without a text; and after he had done this, to talk of his harp or his lyre, at decent intervals, to remind his reader that he was singing in tuneful numbers. The figments of the classical mythology, which had no meaning but in the classical ages, were also as sedulously pressed into the service of the poet as if they were still matters of public faith; and passions were attempted to be excited, and sympathies moved, by continual appeals to Jove, Mars, Apollo, the Fates, and the Furies, Venus, Cupid, and Minerva A mere nounsubstantive made a pitiful figure by itself in orthodox verse, and required to be propped by an adjective, and therefore the rhymer was supplied with some epithet for every object in nature: a mead was invariably a flowery mead; the rose must always be blushing, and the zephyr sighing. There were also certain every-day objects, the names of which it was thought necessary to aggrandise, before they could be fitted for the purposes of poetry. Thus, the sun could not shine in verse but under the name of Phcebus, nor the evening star arise unless it twinkled as Hesperus: even the sweet nightingale required to become Philomel, before she could be musical. Such was the manner in which sound was substituted for sense, and poetry itself was stifled, and buried under a mass of ver biage. So strong, also, was the enthralment of this established language, that the talented, as well as the inane, were obliged to succumb to it; and thus the finest poetry of this century, equally with the trash of Magazines and Miscellaneous Poems, is composed upon these established models. But what strength however great could have moved easily under such restrictions 1? What genius however brilliant could have shone through such a cloud? The most accomplished scholars, and even the poets of Nature's own creation, were born and nurtured in one common perversity; and, therefore, they were obliged to weave the web and weave the woof, according to the scale of manufac ture that had been decreed in the poetical market.

This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Revival of English Poetry in the Nineteenth Century: Selections From Wordsworth, Coleridge, Shelley, Keats and Byron So far as the editor is aware, no good opportunity ex ists for carrying on this work in high schools. One of the poets is not represented in any of the ordinary collee tions of poems now in use as text-books, and no simple explanation of their position in the history of English poetry has been published. To offer such an explanation is the chief purpose of the Introduction in the present volume, which aims to give not only an elementary, but, at least for high schools, an adequate conception of the reawakening of the poetic spirit in this century. In addition, it is hoped that the student will makematerial, which will throw light not only upon the five poets as individuals, but also and especially upon their mutual influence and common sources of inspiration. The selection of poems has been determined in part by the desire to rouse this personal interest, in the hope that the student will be stimulated to read more fully in the authors' works.
